A spokesperson for the hotel said: “Once fully opened and trading is fully re-established, we would expect the hotel to employ in the region of 100 full-time equivalent staff.”

Anyone interested in applying for roles at The Quays Hotel should email their application, or register their interest, with Calum Colquhoun, regional operations manager, directly at [email protected]. Successful applicants will be contacted directly.

The spokesperson also confirmed the hotel’s leisure club, which had 1,400 members, will reopen by the end of January, with the hotel reopening “a few weeks after”.
